Sources of Skousen's material - not just his opinions
The careful, unbiased reader will note this in Skousen's Preface - his work is *not* "just a list of things he did not like": "This study is designed to bring the far-flung facts
about Communism into a single volume. It contains a
distillation of more than one hundred books and
treatises -- many of them written by Communist
authors. It attempts to present the Communist in his
true native elements, stripped of propaganda and
pretense. Hence, the title, 'The Naked Communist.' "

Here and NOW
How can you not see that most of these ‘GOALS’ are happening today?
Unless you are in denial or want that tyranny.
Also, if you have joined them and therefore discredit anything said that looks bad for the communists.

Your critique is absurd. Skousen never even worked in the FBI Division (#5) where the FBI's experts on the CPUSA were assigned. Furthermore, he never was even recommended for transfer to that unit (Domestic Intelligence Division) AND Skousen never even worked internal security cases....His "45 Goals" is just a list of things he did not like so he decided to claim that they were all "Communist" objectives.
YOUR argument is with Hoover and the FBI because they falsified most of what Skousen claimed.

Of course he invented the goals!
Ernie, where do you think he got them? From some Communist Party internal document? It's HIS book! Of course they are going to be found with him! Of course he "made them up"! But do you think he just made them up out of thin air? You think he sat down at a table one night and said to himself, "Oh, gee...I think I'll make all this stuff up out of thin air!" Noooo....he got them from knowledge about how the Communists operated. And was he correct? Well...do you walk into a restaurant wearing a mask made by Communist slave laborers in China? There you go!

EYE OPENING
I have know about the horrible effects Communism has had on our country but this puts it all in an VERY clear perspective. This is perhaps the MOST enlightening book I have ever read.
